Ex-actress details failed threesome and passing out under 300-pound Harvey at Weinstein’s latest NYC trial
Jessica Mann, a former actress, testified in Harvey Weinstein's latest New York trial that he raped her in 2013 after attempting to force her into a threesome, describing the assault as dehumanizing and recounting how she passed out under his weight. She said Weinstein used his power in Hollywood to manipulate her and others, and though they had a consensual relationship at one point, she felt pressured due to his influence. Mann has now testified three times in Weinstein’s trials, with previous convictions overturned or resulting in hung juries. Weinstein, who faces up to 25 years on related charges, has pleaded not guilty and remains convicted of other sex crimes in California.
